Dar The Volunteer publiiihes some very queer proceedings of a Prohibitory Law meet ing, said to have been held at Education Hall, on the evening of the Bth last., and on the authority of these proceedings announces that the Prohibitory men have agreed to supper Mr. Hoene instead of Moser. As these pro ceedings purport to come from "A Spectator," (not a prohibitory and we suspect,) they cer tainly 'cannot be regarded as official.' Suffice it to 'esy that Mr. Koons has written but one letter, that we have heard of, and that is the one he wrote totthe County Prohibitory Con vention. Mr. Koons is a reliable man, who may be supported with confidence—the very opposite.of what Mr. Mom has drown him-' self to be. MOSER'S POSITION Mr. Moser seems to bear very . mookly the statements made by Messrs Ayer, Meok and Mem, respecting hie double-dealing with the Prohibitory Law men. .He makes no reply, and thus tacitly admits that their exposure of his course in entirely correct. It is not much b — Oili — friends and - opponents of prohibition think him unworthy of support. OM CANDIDATES AND OUR DUTY. There has been much said within the last twelve monthd, says the Daily News, by our political opponents, about the Whig party be ing dead. They labor no longer, however, un der that delusion. Our 'true-hearted Whig brethern of the Southern and Southwestern States, though laboring under manifold dis couragements and great disadvantages, afford ed to the country the most unmistakable evi dences, at the August eleotions,•that the Whig party is yet alive, ready and able to battle for the right, and to fight on and over in supper of those great principles and measures with which it is identified. Let the Whigs of Penn sylvania but make up their minds to do their duty, their: whole duty, and nothing short of it, and they will teach thoir opponents even a yet more important and instructive lesson.— They have it in their power, if they will but rally in their full strength, not only to give as surance to their Whig friends in other States that there is a great and powerful Whig orga nization in this State, but to secure even this fall, notwithstapding the defeat of last year, a decided, unequivocal, and positive triumph.— They can, 'if they will, elect their candidates for the Supreme Court, Canal Commissioner, Auditor General and Surveyor 'General. They have the force end organization to do it, and they need'but set to work, as men meet who expeot success, to wheel Pennsylvania into the Whig line at the Next October election. ^ ' tg),The case of Bishop Doane, before the Court of Bishops • sitting at Camden, opposite Philadelphia, Was finally disposed of on Thurs day last. The , .Bishop made a statement in' writing, in which he denied all'evil motives or intentions on his part, and at the same time acknowledged that amidst his perplexities, ho had committed •indisoretions which ho deeply regretted. He further expressed the opinion that the presenting Bishops had not been ao. tuated by any improper motives, but had only discharged what they considered their duty. The Presentment against Bishop D. was then dismissed by a unanimous vote, and the Court adjourned sine die. HON. GIDEON J. BALL:—The numerous Monde of this gallant and distinguished Whig will learn with pleasure that he has again been placed in nomination by the Whigs of Erie county. Mr. Ball is an able, experienced, and efficient legislator, and we are truly gratified to have the assurance that the State pill have the benefit of hie services in the heat General Assembly. Ills nomination and election will be hailed with delight by the Whigs through. out the entire State. POLITICAL MYEITERIES.—It would puzzle a conjuror 'to keep pace with the changes of poli tico. President Pierce, elected as an ultra Union man, is now denounced for his Abolition appointments; D. S. Dickinson, of New York, whose mithe is synonymous with devotion to Southern interest, is defending himself from the imputation of freesoilism ; Gen. Dix, a free soil leader, is endorsed by the Charleston Mer cury as sound on the " peculiar institution ;" to the Baltimore platform. What wonder will surprise us next?

PICODIIII The Volginteer is still in a stew about the _ldeation of Prohibition; and makee another and most wretchedly lame attempt last week to shorr that the Prohibitory law movement , is d , a Whig movement." Locofoqo editors trea t their readers generally as ',gullible enough' to swallow any thing, but this is rather too much. The incontrovertible fact is that the prohibitory liquor law hadite origin in the Looofooo State' of Maine, where it is now an established law, which the Democracy of Maine has not re• pealed. It has Bingo been Passed inLooofooo Michigan—the home of don. Cass. Was it, a Whig movement in these Stales? Is it a Whig movement in Vermont, where it has distracted and divided the Whigs,_and finally two weeks ago shrouded in the gloom of defeat the glori-' one Whig star that never sot befOrcit a Whig movement in Delaware, when four years ago it gave that State to the Locos and enabled them to elect a U. S. Senator? And now to our' own State. Is Prohibition 0 Whig movement in Lancaster,• where our friend Capt. Sanderson, formerly of the Vol unteer, is now fiercely chuokling over the prospect of its splitting the great Whig phalanx of tho Old guard in twain 1• Isit a Whig move ment in Dauphin, where it is likely' to cause the election of two Looofocos to the Legisture, by drawing off Whig strength to Prohibition candidates? These two counties are a suffi cient illustration of the absurdity of what the Volunteer is endeavoring to make its readers believe. • The Volunteer knows, and knows full well, that Prohibition is just as much a Loco tow movement as o Whig movement. It raises the clamor of Whig movement merely for the purpose of frightening and intimidating those Democrats who have ventured to declare them selves friends of_ a prohibitory law. It Sae bullied and lashed these men with little mercy so far, and may be they are " whippable ma terial," who will obey the lnsb, but that is no concern of ours. The' Democratic friends of Prohibition, however, we think onn hardly be made to believe, with Blaine, Michigan, Ver• mont, 'end Lancaster and Dauphin counties before theth, that Prohibition is a Whig mos..' ment. They are dertainly too intelligent for that. LOCOPOCO SPLIT IN NEW YORK The Now York Barnburnerd and Hunkers have split in two under the distinctive names of "Horde " and "Salts." They mettogetber in convention at Symons° on Wednesday last, but soon broke up in a TOW. Separate eon• ventions were then hold, and each party nom inated a State Helot (if its own and adjourned. The Pierce party is rapidly going to the doge. The 'Mutest between the hard., and the anfte is oarried on NMI' much bitterness. Now York Locofocoism is pretty hard to understand, but the following definitions of the several fnotione which aro publielied in the Courier and Ens . quirer, will servo at the present. moment' to give the reader a fair idea of their respec tive " platforms :" Bard Shell Hunkers.—A Domocrat who vot ed for Case, stands by the resolutioris of '9B, curses Van Buren, and utterly refuses all com promises or fraternizationa with the Barnburn ors of '4B. . , Soft Shell Ilur4.ers.—A Democrat who votod for Cass; deplores the division in the party; admits that a Barnburner may be a Democrat, and is disposed' to forgot the past, and com mune with the opposing faction.. fiord Shell Bornburner.—A - Democrat who still insists upon standing on the fragments of the Buffalo platform; swears that Case die- - traded the party in '4B ; adores Van Buren; reads the Evening Post, and becomes rabid at the name or presence of n Hunker. Soft Shell Barnburners.—A Democrat who professes attachment to the' principles of' the Buffalo platform, but is disposed to regard the compromise as a finality; thinks there was come excuse for Case's presumption in '4B, and will not object to a friendly drink with a Hunker. The ~A datuantines' or "Nationale," is the name recently applied to, or' assumed by a portion, at least, of the " Herds,' who, it is said, have pledged themselves to, uphold the fugitive slaw ltiw, in addit;on , to making a steady opposition to any confieotion with the I,3arnbutners. Tho Sorts are'led by John Van Buren & Co. and the Herds by James' T. Bra dy and others. MAINE ELECITION.—The returns we receive by mail of the election in the State of Maine, do not in any respect agree with the accounts daily received by telegraph. The Portland Advertiser of Friday, gives a table electing to the Senate 10 Whigiand 8 Democrats, leaving no choice in twelve other Senatorial districts and one not heard from: This may, however, be altered bysubsequent returns. The same paper has intelligence of the election of 151 members of the 'Rouse .of Representatives, of whom 58 aro set down as - Whigs, 54 as Demo crate, and 8 Free Boilers, leaving 17 districts to bo heard from, which last year elected 5 Whig's and 12 DeMoorate. In this list, the. Advertiser Bays that there are undoubtedly some members classed ,as Democrats-viho should more properly be designated es Morrill, or Irregular Democrats, as the returns in some oases do not show the distinction, 'especially in cases where the Irregulars are known to be elected. In 291 towns, the vote for Gliverrior foots up thus:—For Crosby, Whig, 23,762; for Pillsbury, Regular Democrat, 29,425; for Morrill, Irregular Demooritt, 2480, Free Soil and Scattering, 7847. WASHINGTON, Sept. 18 The Washington Union of this morning, publishes Seitatoe- piokinson's letter, and soft soaps him oonaiderahly. The Organ also publishes the platform of the Syracuse Conventions and congratulates itself on the remarkable exactness of the resolutions, and says "a heavy responsibility will be ,fixed upon those who are guilty of the high offence of thus factiously breaking tip the liarmonY of the party. On this subject we shall proba bly find it our duty to say something hereafter, and wo shall make the Union and the ascend ancy of the party the only object to be accom plished." PROGRESO OA THE YELLOW FEVEIt AT THE &MlL—The epidemic which has created such frightful mortality at New Orleans and Mobile, is rapidly extending into the interior, of Lou isiana and Mississippi. At Vieksburg, - although a largo portion of the inhabitants have fled, It is reported that 260 oases occur in a single day, ' At Grand Gulf one half of the citizens were, taken down in a week.

Does any sensible man credit the assertion, or the ono equally preposterous, that experience in civil business is of no service in criminal eases ? How comes it, to, if the assertions of this writer are true, that the friends of this candidate kept him out of court at the last August term, when ho was before the people for a . ,legal office? These friends hail very kindly on iornier occasions brought hini forward in piosecuting criminal oases. 'Why, keep him book at a time when an exhibition of his experience in criminal courts would have been so satisfactory to the people from whom he expected support at the ap proaching election? The court might, if ho had been in the way, have assigned hinx the defence in some criminal case, (a chance eager ly sought by most young lawyers) and thus afforded him an opportunity for . display. We heard it generally remarked .that ho, scarcely showed himself in the court room during the term. 'Without wishing to disparage the efforts of any young man to raise himself, we say too that it is notorious that the position of this candidate has not been acquired by his own unaided efforts. Within a recent period ho was .4 decided Wliig and only secured the nomina.: tion over consistent Democrats of greater ability, who were equally self-made 'men, by the active influence of those who have many selfish reasons for desiring this election. We again disclaim any unkindjeeling towards the Democratic candidate for District Attorney.— We hope some of these -days he may bo both great and useful. Ile must, however;bide his time, and a delay of a re w yeara, if accompanied by tliatindhbtry so praised inliniTO/unteer,vvill most likely render him a safe depository of official trust. At present we must adhere to our original•opinion that ho has not the legal experience to qualify. him-for nn office 01. so much importance, and responsibility. FOUR DAYS LATER FROM EUROPE New Yens, Sept, 18.—Tho steamer Arotio arrived at an early hour this morning, bring ingr2oo passengers and Liverpool dates of the 7th instant. Among her passengers are Mrs. H. 'B. Stowe, author of " Uncle Tom's Cabin." - 'The aspect of the Eastern qUestion remain ed unchanged since the sailing of the Niagara. Nothing was yet known as to the intention of the Czar. The Sultan had sent an explanatory manifesto to the Four Powers. It was report ed that Franco had informed the Sultan that any further stops he takes ho must take at-his own The government of Franco having fixed a low price upon broad, was using every means to keep down the prices a grain, and the mar •kets were consequently reported dull and lower. Owing to the fine weather and the favorable accounts of the: harvest, together with a de ethic in France, causing re•aales of French or ders, prioes of breadstuffs wore irregular and lower. The decline in Four was is per bbl., and in Wheat 4d per bushel—Corn was in moderate dentand-at-stentlyratesr-------7-- Muxtoo.:—Santa Anna's fortunes appear to be already`waning again in Mexico ; and his magnificent promises and efforts, his Spanish alliance, his anti.Amerioanism, his assaults upon the press, his deorees and grand airs a la Louis Napoleon, have not protected him from pronunciamentos. According to the lastintel ligence received in San Antonid, Texas, by an arrival from Zacateens, we learn that the two important States of . Guanajuato and Guadala.., jara have declared, against him; and it was believed that Chihuahua and several other States would soon follow the example. .The immediate causes of the movement seem to have been the imposition of now and grossly oppressive direct taxes—one a monthlptax of one real on every member of a family, another a monthly tax of ono hundred , dollars on every merchant, with—not to speak of similar taxes on mechanics and other classes—a forced levy of troops to make up his intended army 'Of 01,000 men, and the substitution of 'Military for civil government in the several States. : — To avoid the conscription, many Mexicans had fled across the .Texan frontier. As showing the spirit of the troops thus .impressed, it is stated that a company of sixty organized at Aguscalientes, rebelled and refused to obey their officers. They were afterwards over powered, and ordered to be diet; and the tunpofate rewarded another body of soldiers from Zacatecas who refused to pursue some merauding Indians. The prospect Is of a very actions condition of things in Mexico. TRIMBLE MURDER AT PERRYPOLIS, r.A.— A.for days ago, the house of William Searle; at Perrypolis, ton miles from BroWnsville, Pa., was entered: by robbers on the night of the Bth instant,' and his wife murdered, himself so badly:wounded as to leave but little hopes of his recovery, and the house plundered and burned with his Wife. We now learn from the Brownsville clipper - that two young men, named George Ward and i Malcom . Gibson, charged with the terrible crime, have been arrested and committed to jail. A phial of cinnamon drops, which, it is said, they pur chased in the vicinity the day before the mur der, was found in the yard of the bonne - where they'wero arrested, besides which bio : od Was discolored on ono of their ahirta,4d $BO lu money, found -secreted in . the yard of Ward, which Mr. Seorist has :identified as a portion of $2OO, which was takin from hie liouse - on . the night of the murder. - . , Yong.

For the "Ilerald.rt„ Mr. Editor: With your permission I propose making, through the columns of the Herald, a few remarks touching an article headed ATTOIINIT," which appeared in the last number of the American Volunteer." Space is requested in your paper, because I am well aware that tay, article (although I am, a mem ber of the same party) would be refesCd pub lication in either of the deinocratio papers of due borough. In commencement, let me say that no one, even for a moment, supposes the article under consideration to have been written by • uur Post-Master.. No, it bears the iibpress of that towering genius who is tho theme Oita °Oozy, andkwho has been, fOr, seine time past,,indo fatigably engaged in writing very silly edito rial triad for the Volunteer. Indeed, had nut ter Shearer sat for his picture, we doubtvery much-whether a - znero flattering likeness could have been preieutedio: the pti,blio,, delicalte,'lt is always tailetible to bo one's•own painter, for' we can then' ehrtdow forth man beautiful and captivating : lineaments Iwhieb another , artist might never discover. These beauties, itletrue, may Wilt only in , oar vain , imaginations; built is ourown.fault if we do, 'not try ;to mislead_ the 'public into a:belief of their tangibility. There are some very sensible people in this , however,, , whe do tot consider sett-, praise a recommendation; and, therefore, we are somewhat hablineCto, 'Oink , that the ex. ceediegl4modest , who tiee had So ',Wash iop,criolikeo one_ Oriatinol'Oeurts," , Ist 411tlior diopeicithe'aoilimunt* by, blow ;:i ing snob loud an .panegyr ea n - noteshis own trumpet., True, the instrument; at best, is but tipernly, one; butintelligent individua!yi , somehow or another, will 'persist in, thinking that person very silly who is' detested end ;exposed,' whilst playing the moat 'exquisite 'tunes in his own favor. . It may*,bo very pleasan fpr a vain and silly I personage to speak of himself' as "a young man of ixaellent natural ability;" but it strikes us that it will.be considered rather in the light of a fancy sketch, (especially in Carlisle, where the subject is well known,) when the''l same modest youth sketches his own character in the following diffiident style ho 'has•ca leadY acquired the confidence and esteem - of our, citizens in a high degree, by the 'uniforin polite -um and respect with which he treats every indi vidual, by the sterling integrity 'of his character, and the strenuous e f forts he has made to Obtain a thorough knowledge of his profession." Such unexampled and unbhishing egotism, ns this last quotation evinces, is almost enough to make ono weep over the degradation of hu nanity_;_and were not the . whole piece se superlatively ridiculous and mirt~t-prow kid' we might drop a few tears upon the grave 'in which this self-praising young. man has I buried his honor and decency. Indeed, we wonder why , Mister Shearer did'not entry his vanity to the full extreme, and paint himself Has the most - piomising young lawyer, in the land. A very modest "young man f most excellent natural ability should not stop at trifles; particularly when chronieleing his own virtues; nn'll it would have given us, as well as the whole community, the greatest pleasure to have seen a full length portrait of - this "en tirely self-made man," drawn—by his own pen! -- There is snob a thing,-however,- as killing one's self by kindness, and we imagine, that tho'conclusion of thb Volunteer's article is a little too barefaced to gull the good people of our Cciunty into the blind support of a youth - whiise only talent consists-in vindictiveness, and whose great energy is only nn insane de sire to revenge himself unie all those whom holanoies to have overlook hie great merits. An individual who writes so much about his' 'own. "undoubted, unflinching integrity," is not alwayS,' like Cremes wirer above suspicion; and some persons are wicked enough to insin nate, that it' would be better,- and certainly much more modest, for a candidate to let nth -ors shadow forth .his virtu'es; 'tban to bring them before the public eye hiinselp This '.oPinion may possibly be only a matter of taste, and if Master Shearer derives either profit or pleasure from informing the community that he hne been ono of " the most steady, industrious and indefatigable students itt the place;"-Apy, vie have not the slightest objection; but we can not help thinking, that the man who is giiiity of such disgusting' self latidation has only shown his real weakness. But is is said that some of the young me chanic's of Carlisle, who know Mister Shearer very well, entertain quite a different opinion in regard to his "uniform politeness and re spect " Indeed, we have heard some of them say that ho is a vain, captious, quarrelsome little fellow, who has dikgusted, by his over wsmning vanity and-dictatorial manner, nearly every young man with whom he has bad any association. Now, if Mister Shearer's former acquaintances are.right in their opinion of his character; it seems to us as if there might be another side to the picture contained in o the last Volunteer; and, therefore we would sug gest the propriety of having the other side painted in the next number of that truth-lov iug and truth-telling journal. In regard to Mr, Penrose' we shell be brief. Wo do not know that we will give him our vote for District Attorney: DUT, THIS we no KNOW, that we will not vote for an unprinci pled fellow, like Mister Shearer, who was violent Whig until self-interest dictated a dif ferent course, and who once informed a person that he had Kchanged his politics solely because the chance of procuring office was better' in the Democratic party l" Such a time-serving and political-Judas-can-never-get the vote of a TRUE DEMOCRAT. Carlisle, Sept. 20, '53. Latest from Turkey and Russia. The Eastern question has started into fresh life and increased uneasiness regarding its final issue. Tho Paris Monitenr of the 27th, announc ed officially that the Porto had accepted the proposition of the Vienna conference, with some unimportant modifications in the wording of the document. The monied world was by no moans re assured by this announcement; and on the 27th a sort of semi-panic was produced by an article in the Debate professing to give the substance of important alterdtions which have been made by the Sultan. If the ver sion of the Debate be' correct the note would have to be entirely re-modelled, and it must be considered very doubtful wheth er the Emperor would accept-the alteration. Thus the negotiations would havoto com,_ mence almost de noroOilidthe'Porte there by would be playing into the hands of Rus sia, because a pretext for delaying the eyrie -nation-of the. Principalities would - be afford ed. It depends, therefore; entirely upon the Czar to re-open the question, or not, just as ho'choose, and revoke the precious no _ceptance__of_the_arrangement_of_the_fo.nr groat powers, if it suited his policy to do so. „ Against this-view of the case, and as an 'evidence of the more pacific appearance of .the affairs, we find in the London Morning Chronicle of the 31st ult., a telegraphic des patch from Vienna, stating that a courier reached that city from Constantinople, con firming the statement that the verbal altera tion to the note of the four Powers was real ly insignificant, and that the Porto had ad dressed a note to the ambassadors of the Four Powers, stating its dignity required ' such modification, and that the Sultan would send an ambassador to St. Petersburg sim ultaneously With the evacuation of the Prin cipalities. The London Times of the same day, pub lishes a despatch from Bucharest, dated Au gust 17th, to the effect - that the Austrian Consul general, haling received despatches that the Oriental question was settled, the Russians would evacuate the Principalities in September, and in Paris it was, said that the fleets of England and France would thereupon return to Malta and Toulon. , Taking: the various conflicting reports. together, it is evident that the question is far fromboing settled. The Russian troops in the Principalities wore very unhealthy. • CONSTANTINOPLE, Aug. 10, 1868. A meeting of the Grand Cciuncil had boon announced for the 20th. On the do demand of the Ambassadors, the Councils were convened two days earlier, (on the 18th.) 'The Patriarchs have been summon ed to attend. This was an extraordinary measure andwas owing to the opinions ex pressed by the members Of the council, that the DiVan had accepted the Vienna note. An imperial decreapublished on the 16th of August, orders the immediate levy of 80,000 militia as,a reserve. CoNEITANTINOPLE, Aug. 22, 1858 Col.
